Ask Jeffrey Feltman: he knew

"During a Senate hearing on Thursday, both Democrats and Republicans pressed a senior Central Intelligence Agency official about when the C.I.A. and other agencies notified President Obama of the looming crisis, and whether intelligence officers even monitored social networking sites and Internet forums to gauge popular sentiment in Egypt."  Jeffrey Feltman knew.  When asked during the uprising Tunisia whether Egypt was in danger, he said: "The events in Tunisia strikes me as being uniquely Tunisian."  In fact, when asked today for his comment about Egypt, Feltman said: the scenes from Tahrir Square strikes me as uniquely Tahrir Square.
